Since the turn of the 18th Century, the
Maltese Gilded Clock, popularly known as tal-Lira, was a prized possession,
usually reserved for the aristocracy and the nobility. Nowadays, however, it is
not as prohibitive to own such a prestigious clock; although one is still
considered to be privileged to have such a clock decorating one’s home.

ARE YOU ONE OF THESE PROUD OWNERS
?

If not, Tony, an
experienced and dedicated gilder, can help you to achieve your wish; and this
could be your opportunity to own an arloġġ tal-Lira.

To give your
clock that personal touch and make it more prestigious, you can also have your
own family coat of arms embossed in gold leaf on your clock for a small extra
charge.
